Who said that it will not run from late June? The night train via Germany won’t run for 3 weeks in August but the one via Austria will. Anyway back to your question : The 19:59 service is available right now for 196€ (double sleeper cabin). The 20:40 service via Austria is only available until 9th May as far as I can see. I’d check back in a few days. You can always book the other night train → fully refundable. Thank you for your response. When you refer to the other night train, I guess you are referring to the 19:59 service. There is an alert for this service as follows : Due to construction work or other factors affecting our services, the departure and/or arrival times of this service may change even on the selected day. If you buy a ticket, we will send you an email or sms text message to notify you about any modifications. (Please also check your spam folder regularly). Should I continue with the booking and hope for the best (as the cancellation conditions are not clear to me)
I am looking at Rail Europe. The price on Rail Planner is 56 Euro. Not sure where you Angelo are getting your prices.
When I use Rail Europe the class is Standard. Is there no first class on these trains?
Thank you so much. I appreciate the link to seat61 which is super useful. I have downloaded the DB Navigator app and will continue with our research.
Thank you for your responses. Good to know that the 11pm departure with an arrival late morning is viewed as one trip. We do see the value in the 2 month option as we will most likely take short trips during the day. We do not intend to work on a fixed agenda to allow us greater flexibility. We will fly into Paris. Our niece lives in St Germaine en Laye and we would like to spend some time with her. We would like to visit Basel and visit friends in Geneva & Lucerne. Eventually we will make our way to Porto to walk from Porto to Santiago de Compostela before making our way to London. We have so many ideas and know that we have to filter our plans. We want to enjoy our time in Europe vs speed travel.
Don't be shy and let us know about your challenge.
